A DNA repair system whereby one member of a mismatched pair of bases is converted to the normally matched base.
DNA错配修复系统
Example sentencesExamples
In summary, we suggest that the HSM3 gene is not likely to be involved in regulating DNA mismatch repair under standard growth conditions.
A nearest-neighbor bias around the mutated base pair suggests that mismatch repair counteracts alkylation damage.
This trend may be explained by variation in mutational tendencies or by biased mismatch repair after gene conversion events.
These effects were examined in an otherwise wild-type background and in combination with defects in DNA mismatch repair or specialized DNA polymerases.
Six of these studies involved mismatch repair of heteroduplex plasmid DNA in mitotic wild-type strains.
